Steam Pumpkin Mantao by Ivy Cheang



(Yield ~12pcs)
Ingredients:
Plain flour 300g
Pumpkin (steam and mashed) 100g
Sugar 2½tbsp
Salt ½tsp
Sesame oil/ corn oil 3tbsp
Water 110-130ml *
Instant yeast 1½tsp
Black sesame ~ for topping

*I would recommend to put 110ml water first. If the dough too dry and can't form then only add on 1tsp each time until a soft and non sticky dough is formed. The amount of water needed is affected by the moist of pumpkin mash.

Steps: 
1) Put all ingredients into bread maker pan from wet ingredients to dry. Make a hole in the center of flour and put instant yeast inside.
2) Choose 'DOUGH' mode and knead for 20min or until a soft and non sticky dough form.
3) Cover the dough with wet towel and let it rest 20min. The dough will double in its size.
4) Divide the dough into 50g small ball and shape it to your prefer design.
5) Cover it with wet towel for 20min for second proofing. It will become 50% bigger in size.
6) Steam over high heat for 20min. Serve warm and enjoy
